Hurricane Helene brought dams in North Carolina and Tennessee close to their breaking point. Many US dams are decades old and weren’t designed for the impacts of climate change.

    A lot of things weren’t built for today’s climate charged rain and floods lol

    They don’t even store the ‘roads closed due to flood’ signs and barricades anymore. They just leave it on the side until the next storm.
